''When Smith Canio Home." i
''When S in i t h Catnc lloine" which

on Thursday, February H, probably
has more funny characters in it than
any farce ever written. There is the1,
innocent but excitable man who has
been entrapped into becoming one of
a band of Anarchists, and who labors
under the delusion that everyone is
an agent from them bent on aeeoni- '
lishing itis death. Then there is the
man who writes tracts and never
takes anything alcoholic?but who is
discovered in a most amusing stale J
o! intoxication. There is an amaleur
il elective who pines to outrival
Sherlock Holmes, and who goes about 1
(racing unknown crimes to the doors j
of unsuspecting persons. Then there'
is the butler and his wife, and a pretty
little trained nurse who gel themselves
and everyone else involved in
the most extraordinary predicaments j
not to mention several minor characters
who add their share to the fun
making. It is a real farce with real
laughter and real enjoyment.

MR. J. CALVIN NEEL.
Death of a Good Citizen of Newberry
'County?Was a Brave Confederate
Soldier.
Mr. J. Calvin Neel died at his home
just beyond the corporate limits of
Newberry it. I2.")0 o'clock on Saturday
morning, in the 73rd year of
lii> iige. Mr. Neel had been afflicted
with heart trouble for some tiiine, a ".id
during the past two or three months
he had been confine.I to his home.
vn Friday lie appeared 'better, so
surcli better that it was thought that
tie. rrt was a possibility of his being
ieiorcd to his aceuslomed activity
for awhile. On Friday .light his
ion-iii-law, Mr. S. P. Orotwell was
with him. Mr. Neel raised up in his
bed and as Mr. Crotwell smoothed
bi-t pillows, Mr. Neel fell back dead.
The funeral services were held at
the home on Sunday afternoon at
1.30 o'dloek, and the remains were
interred at Cwnnon's Creek church,
of which Mr. Neel was a member.
Mr. Neel was a gallant Confederate
soldier, being a member of Kershaw's
brigade?, lie was at the battle
of First Manassas, the first important
battle of the war, and surrendered
under General Johnson at
Greensboro. It is told of him by his
comrades that when the surrender at
(ireeiisboro was' announced Mr.
Neel's command was in a new ground
and that Mr. Neel put a shell under
some brush with the remark that
whoever cleared that new ground
woufld know the war was not over.
Gallant as he was, ^Ijr. Neel could
not brook the Idea of surrender, and
the storv told by his comrades illustrated
this spirit in him.
Mr. Neel's \vife preceded him to
the spirit land about two years ago.
Five children have also bofore him
fallen on filcep eternal. He is snr,:*
